The next chapter of the post-apocalyptic story is closer than we thought.

In 2023, Silo was a real discovery for fans of science fiction and twisted plots. Hugh Howey's Silo was one of the most popular sci-fi book series of the 2010s. Fans have dreamed of an adaptation, but until recently it seemed unrealistic.

But Apple took a chance and it turned out to be right – Silo became one of the most watched shows on Apple TV+.

Silo Season 2 Release Date & Streaming Platform

We waited, and finally the release date for the second season was announced – the first episode will be released on Apple TV+ on November 15, which means we did not even have to wait two years for the next season.

In the first season finale, Juliette prepares to leave the silo. However, thanks to her friends she manages to avoid the problem with the malfunctioning suits and stays outside longer. Juliette realizes that the colorful and peaceful image of the world displayed in her suit is an illusion.

Bernard realizes that the woman has revealed the secret and rushes to the secret room. He opens the door with a special key marked 18, the number of his Silo. Most likely, Bernard has entered a room where there is a device for communication with other heads of IT departments.

Juliette then leaves the camera's view of the bunker. We are shown that there are many silos, and that the area on the surface is unsuitable for life.

In future episodes, Juliette will most likely reach one of the neighboring shelters – Silo 17. In this bunker, she will face difficult living conditions, from the cold to air that is dangerous to breathe.

In the lower part of Silo 17, the situation will be much safer. Here she will meet a man named Solo, who managed to survive the revolution and the bloody battles in this bunker.

Juliette will find the local IT department with working computers, and Solo will take her to a secret room for communication between the heads of IT departments, full of all sorts of classified and historical information.

Season 2 will continue the confrontation between Juliette and the main antagonist, Bernard. They will stay in contact with the help of devices from secret rooms.

According to the original source, Bernard will try to appoint the IT specialist Lukas as his successor. Lukas will have to find out the reasons for the creation of the bunkers. At the same time, he will begin to secretly maintain contact with Juliette.

In Season 2, a violent uprising will most likely begin in Bernard's bunker, involving the mechanics, including Shirley and Martha. In this case, Juliette will definitely try to return to her Silo to stop Bernard, help her friends, and rescue Lukas, whose connection to her will eventually be revealed.
